This dartitis thing has been literally driving me insane for the last two years. I have been playing for 15 years and I come down with dartitis for the first time in 2005, a few games later I changed the way I held my dart and it went away immediately. Then in 2009, I'm at the top of my game and highest point in my entire life. I had a great job, making the perfect amount of money. Bought a REALLY nice house and two months later I get laid off. Dartitis began rearing it's ugly head slowly but surely until it was full force and I was lunging at the dartboard before I could release. All the while being laughed at and being chastized for my dart not hitting the board before my foot hit the floor!!! I played like this for a year hoping I would figure out the magic button to make this horrifying experience go away but it just kept getting worse. I finally hit my breaking point and lost it, through my darts in the trash and gave my second place cash prize to my partner for carrying me the entire time and left. Didn't pick up another dart for 8 months. Tried another tournament and it was GONE, or so I would have liked!! I played the entire tournament without a hitch and was playing surprisingly well seeing as how I hadn't played in so long. Made it to the finals in my first tournament back and I'll be damned if it didn't come back!!! I have wanted to cry so many times over this!! I decided to try a hypnotist and it just wouldn't stick. I seen him today and played tonight and it's still there!! I'm at my breaking point again and I love this game so much, but I need to figure this out! If anyone can help please do!! I'm going to try the throwing in the dark thing and if I find something that works I will definitely get back on here and let everyone know. I feel for you guys that have this...it is truely a nightmare!! Please hang in there and hopefully the love we have for the sport will get us through it!!
